On the next few pages we'll show you some photos. The images were taken at high resolution and then cropped and scaled down. The camera used was a Canon 450D 12 MegaPixel.

There's no review without a retail box shot here at Guru3D.com, this is what you can expect when you purchase the product.

Inside you'll find the product which is carefully packaged in Styrofoam. The photo is a little off with all that white in there though :)

Right, once unpacked we can see the entire idea a little better. You'll immediately see that the GTX 295 is the dual-PCB version with attached to it the preinstalled and filled CoolIT cooling unit. This literally is how you receive the product, everything is pre-fitted, filled and installed.

Being the dual PCB version you have an advantage, you get a native HDMI connector. All GTX 295 cards will have an HDMI and two DVI connectors. Both the DVI ports support simultaneous HDCP and are dual link capable. Dual link means you can hook up a high resolution monitor up to 2560 x 1600, and likely even higher.

A thing from the past is the 7-pin analog HDTV-out mini-din, and S-video connector, or YPrPb (component) or composite output. Well, the last time I used that connector was before 2004, so I made my peace with that.

At the rear end we can see the tubing and barbs lead out of the graphics card. No tacky clamp based stuff, the copper mounts are soldered to the tubing. you can bend and turn the tubing into the right position fairly well. There's no way in hell this kit would leak. This is also pre-tested by the way.

On the top right you can see eight and six pin power connectors.
